Context — God Will Be Gracious
20The Lord will give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, but your Teacher will no longer hide Himself—with your own eyes you will see Him.
21And whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear this command behind you: “This is the way. Walk in it.”
22So you will desecrate your silver-plated idols and your gold-plated images. You will throw them away like menstrual cloths, saying to them, “Be gone!”
23Then He will send rain for the seed that you have sown in the ground, and the food that comes from your land will be rich and plentiful. On that day your cattle will graze in open pastures. 24The oxen and donkeys that work the ground will eat salted fodder, winnowed with shovel and pitchfork.Cross References

Isaiah 30:22 Summary
This verse, Isaiah 30:22, is saying that we need to get rid of anything that is taking the place of God in our lives, whether it's something we own or something we're putting our trust in. We need to recognize that these things are worthless and unclean, and instead, seek to worship and follow the one true God, as encouraged in Deuteronomy 6:5 and Matthew 22:37-38. Just like the Israelites were called to reject their idols, we must be willing to let go of anything that distracts us from God, and instead, seek to know and follow Him, as seen in Jeremiah 29:13 and Matthew 7:7-8.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to desecrate silver-plated idols and gold-plated images?
To desecrate these idols means to declare them worthless and unclean, just as the Israelites were instructed to do in Deuteronomy 7:25, and to reject the false worship they represent, as seen in Isaiah 30:22.
Why are the idols compared to menstrual cloths?
The comparison to menstrual cloths, as seen in Isaiah 30:22, is a sign of utter rejection and uncleanness, emphasizing the defilement and shame associated with idolatry, much like the purification rituals described in Leviticus 15:19-24.
What is the significance of saying 'Be gone!' to the idols?
Saying 'Be gone!' to the idols signifies a deliberate and intentional rejection of their influence and power, acknowledging the one true God as the only worthy object of worship, as proclaimed in Exodus 20:3-5 and reinforced in Isaiah 30:22.
How does this verse relate to our modern lives?
This verse reminds us that we must be willing to let go of anything that distracts us from worshiping the one true God, just as the Israelites were called to do, and to seek Him wholeheartedly, as encouraged in Matthew 22:37-38 and Deuteronomy 6:5.
Reflection Questions
- What are the 'idols' in my life that I need to desecrate and reject, and how can I practically apply the lesson of Isaiah 30:22 to my daily life?
- In what ways have I been prioritizing worldly treasures over my relationship with God, and how can I realign my priorities with the teachings of Scripture, such as Matthew 6:19-21?
- How can I cultivate a deeper sense of reverence and worship for God, recognizing His holiness and majesty, as described in Isaiah 6:1-5 and Revelation 4:8-11?
- What are some areas in my life where I need to hear the gentle whisper of God's guidance, saying 'This is the way. Walk in it,' as seen in Isaiah 30:21, and how can I tune my heart to His voice?
Gill's Exposition on Isaiah 30:22
Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver,.... Images made of solid silver, covered with rich and costly garments; or images covered and decorated with plates of silver; see
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 30:22
Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Isaiah 30:22
Ye shall defile, to show your contempt of it, and to make it unfit for your own or any other’ s use. The covering; the leaves or plates wherewith their wooden images were frequently covered; of which see ,19 Numbers 16:38,39. The ornament; or, the coat or covering. Heb. the ephod, as this very word is rendered, 39:5, which was a costly and glorious robe. The idolaters spared no cost in the making and adorning their idols; and, among others, the image of Jupiter in Sicily had a coat put upon it made all of massy gold. Thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt so deeply abhor idolatry, that thou shalt east away with indignation all the monuments and instruments thereof.
Trapp's Commentary on Isaiah 30:22
Isaiah 30:22 Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.Ver. 22. Thou shalt defile also the covering.] Thou shalt pollute the idols which thou hadst perfumed. Such a change is wrought in people by the Word preached, as is to be seen in all the reformed churches; cavete ab idolis, beware of idols. Thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth.] Ut mulierem laborantem ex mensibus, as a labouring woman from her period. Thou shalt say unto them, Get thee hence.] Apage, Abi in malam crucem. Men should heartily hate sin by them committed: dealing by it as Amnon did by Tamar; and as heartily desiring to forego it, as to have it forgiven; to part with it, as to have it pardoned. See Hosea 14:8. Piscat. Comparat idola scorto perpetuo monstro abominabili. - Zeged.
Ellicott's Commentary on Isaiah 30:22
(22) Ye shall defile also . . .—The first effect of the turning of the people was to be the putting away of what had been their besetting sin. The “graven” image possibly refers to the “carved” wooden figure which was afterwards overlaid with silver and gold. (Comp. Isaiah 40:19.) These, which had been worshipped, were now to be cast aside, like that which was the very type of loathsomeness.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Isaiah 30:22
Verse 22. Ye shall defile - "Ye shall treat as defiled"] The very prohibition of Moses, Deuteronomy 7:25, only thrown out of the prose into the poetical form: "The graven images of their gods ye shall burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or the gold that is on them; nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein; for it is an abomination to JEHOVAH thy God."
Cambridge Bible on Isaiah 30:22
22. The renunciation of idolatry. Ye shall defile] i.e. “desecrate” (2 Kings 23:8 ff.). covering … ornament] Overlaying … plating, as R.V. An idol consisted of a core of wood or inferior metal, overlaid with a costly layer of silver or gold. The latter part was of course the most valuable, and perhaps also the most sacred (see Deuteronomy 7:25 f.). cast them away, &c.] scatter them as an unclean thing; Exodus 32:20.
Barnes' Notes on Isaiah 30:22
Ye shall defile also - That is, you shall regard them as polluted and abominable.
Whedon's Commentary on Isaiah 30:22
19-26. Having opened thus the ever-pleasing thought of the prophet — namely, the divine forbearance — the way is prepared now for comfort to the devout class of people in Jerusalem.
